For the Head
David's Beanie
His beanies are popular with his friends, who say, "can we 'borrow' your beanie David" and then keep them. Isn't that a nice thing for a knitter! My beanies are all over Wellington and Christchurch!
Jacque's Easy Beanie
After a few Dunedin mornings of temperatures below freezing, I decided it was time to make myself a warm woolly hat. I started it about 9.30 am and knitted on and off all day. I finished it about 7.30pm. So I reckon it took me about seven hours to knit. Not bad, eh!
Pumpkin Hat
Baby hat in double knit wool.
For the Neck
Collarette Neck Warmer
This makes a lovely light collarette to wrap round your neck, and it is so fine you can tuck it in against your skin, or over the collar of your blouse and under your coat or jacket.

Super Easy Socks
Neat! I can make a pair of these in a day if I sit at it. More usually, I can make two pairs in a week. They are firm and suitable for under your joggers or work boots.
Heavy Double Knit Socks
I saw Kathryn outside cutting the gorse with snoppers, and wearing her huge gumboots, I was inspired to make these nice thick long socks. Kathryn is tall and so I made these a generous length, allowing for the possibility of some felting in those heavy gumboots.
Lace Panel Socks
I completed these in five days January 2005, and gave them to her on Carsten's first visit for dinner. We got tiddly on mudslides.
